Isaiah 1:21

Zion Will Be Redeemed with Justice
21 How the faithful city has become a (A)harlot,
She who was full of justice!
Righteousness once lodged in her,
But now murderers.
Jeremiah 2:25

25 Keep your feet from being barefoot
And your throat from thirst;
But you said, ‘(A)It is [a]hopeless!
No! For I have (B)loved strangers,
And after them I will walk.’

The Polluted Land
3 God [a]says, “(A)If a husband divorces his wife
And she goes from him
And belongs to another man,
Will he still return to her?
Will not that land be completely [b]polluted?
But you (B)are a harlot with many [c]lovers;
Yet you (C)turn to Me,” declares Yahweh.
2 “Lift up your eyes to the (D)bare heights and see;
Where have you not been ravished?
By the roads you have (E)sat for them
Like [d]an Arab in the wilderness,
And you have (F)polluted a land
With your harlotry and with your evil.
